Days had turned to months and months into yet another year. Chibi Usa had grown older and was starting to get more advanced in the use of her Sailor powers. Serenity hadn't seen that mysterious mask guy since the eve of the ball last year and she hadn't seen or heard anything about Endymion. He had proclaimed war against her, his own wife. It shocked her to no end. Was his allegiance to Queen Beryl so loyal?

Serenity sighed to herself as she walked down the Crystal Gardens. It was summer and the roses were in bloom. She picked one of the red ones, Endymions favorite. She had never been able to admit this to anyone but she missed him terribly.

Meanwhile…

Endymion had killed Beryl. Over the course of a year he had trapped her within her own vulnerability and her love for him. It wasn't a very hard task to accomplish. She had cursed him and told him she would get him back and such. She had said one day she would be reincarnated and he would suffer. Those were her last words. It was actually rather pathetic.

Endymion smirked as he watched from the ex-dark queens crystal ball. He watched Serenity closely smiling. "Soon, my little odango …." He said mockingly, "soon everything you love will perish…" For you see, even though Beryl was dead, the hatred for Serenity still laid within him. Why? Perhaps it was because he felt sort of betrayed…harbored anger towards her for her past transgressions. One being that she had accepted that gift from Demando so long ago.

Yes…she would pay for her transgressions…

A.N: I know this is another short one but I'm having a hard time figuring out what to write so be patient with me okay?
